This Couple Rescued 7 Animals And This Is How They Live Now

ADVERTISEMENT

I bet it never occurred to you that dogs, cats, and ducklings could get along, huh? Well, turns out not only do they get along, but they’re inseparable!

Meet Roxy, Edith, Mia, Rose, Jake, Gertrude and Donald – the most adorable family of seven that you’ll ever see. They were adopted by Kasey Boggs and her husband, who have been rescuing animals for a decade. Their current family of seven is made up of four dogs, a cat, and two ducklings, and they’re all inseparable. They go on adventures every weekend, take the cutest photos ever, then post them to Instagram. The animals love each other so much, they won’t even take pictures separately. “Whenever I have to take a pic of two or three of them, I put the others in a different room. If I try to do it in front of them, they will come together, because they are so used to being together”, Boggs told Barkpost. Too cute!

Meet Roxy, Edith, Mia, Rose, Jake, Gertrude and Donald – the most adorable family of seven that you’ll ever see

They were all adopted by Kasey Boggs and her husband, who have been rescuing animals for a decade

And they all love each other so much

The ducklings were the latest addition to the family, and they fell in love from the first sight

Every weekend, the whole family goes on fun adventures, like hiking and camping

This is what it’s like to walk them

First, they rescued and adopted the Toy Fox Terrier, Roxy, who didn’t have a hip joint

ADVERTISEMENT

A week later, they adopted a Pit Bull named Nala, which, sadly, had a heart problem and died

That’s where the Boggs’ love for Pit Bulls came from, so they then rescued two more Pit Bulls, Jake and Rosie

Jake (top) was rescued from an owner, who would lock him up in a crate because he didn’t want him

Rosie (right) came from a high crime dog-fighting neighborhood, where cops would shoot pit bulls on sight

ADVERTISEMENT

There’s also Edith, a Rat Terrier Italian Greyhound mix

She was found by the Humane Society in a cold, dark alley lying on her dead mother to keep warm

Next, is Mia, the adventurous cat from Stray Haven Cat Rescue

And here’s the whole family ready for their next adventure

Aren’t they adorable?

And if you think that 7 is too many, the couple is also expecting a baby now!

Thank you for your love of these beautiful animals. The bully's are proof that with love, care and attention, they can be rehabilitated to not fight. It is people who make dogs vicious. Respect a dog and you will have the most amazing animal ever. As a cat lover, I am blown away by the gentleness in the dogs eyes as regards the cat...Have an absolutely awesome day

Great family. Please note that Jake, the grey/white pit, almost looks as if there is a growth under his jaw...the 'shape' isn't 'regular'. this may just be Jake's configuration, but checking with his vet to make sure he doesn't have a lump is a good idea...lost one dog to an intranasal tumor that took so long to diagnose it was advanced and inoperable by the time they figured it out (and we'd been to vets very often!).

These pics are so cute! Hopefully people will realise that not all pit bulls are aggressive, and stop stereotyping them. I love the pic of them sat in the pool with the ducks, it's so cute! And the dentist duck who likes to inspect the dogs mouth is adorable :)

I think that these amazing people are proof of the fact that good people are out there, and you should NOT breed profile! Just look at those pit bulls. I have had rescues all my life that came from horrific situations of abuse but with cuddles and love they over came their past. Bless this amazing couple, I wish you all the best in the coming future, and with the coming little one :)

None of the animals look at all happy, especially the poor cat. This is just like a Circus where animals are dressed to look cute for the camera - obviously bribed with food treats to 'pose'. I feel sorry for them, please have them re-homed where they can be genuinely loved rather than used.

If the animals didn't want to do it, then they wouldn't do it. You can't make a cat do something it doesn't want to do, they're stubborn little buggers!
